What MDrumLeveler does
Traditional dynamic processors such as compressors, expanders and gates detect level and change gain on every sample, which shapes the sound itself and makes transparency hard to keep when the goal is level control. MDrumLeveler takes a different route: it analyzes the incoming audio, locates drum hits, and changes the level of each event while leaving the color of the sound unaltered.
The event detector is highly adjustable, and it can be tuned to recordings that rarely arrive flawless.
Leakage and ambience between hits are handled without a gate. Traditionally a gate attenuates audio between separate hits, but MDrumLeveler removes leakage and ambience directly on the detected events, which the developer describes as necessary for tight modern mixes that are hard to reach with standard tools. Drum envelope shaping is applied to each hit, so a longer body or a faster release can be set without spending hours on experimentation, since the parameters give direct control over these shapes.
A line about the drum-tuning comparison is pointless here: the developer’s own analogy is that vocalists use an automatic tuner and drummers now have MDrumLeveler. The processor is available as VST3, VST2, AU and AAX for Windows and macOS in 64-bit builds, and the macOS build runs on macOS 10.14 and later, while the Windows build requires Windows 8 or higher.
Key features
- Event-based processing. The processor analyzes incoming audio, detects drum hits and adjusts the level of each event, instead of applying gain changes to every sample.
- Event detector. The detector is highly adjustable, and two parallel resonant band-pass filters can target dominant frequencies in the material.
- Leakage and ambience removal. Leakage and ambience between hits are reduced on the detected events, without the audio being cut as a gate would cut it.
- Drum envelope shaping. The envelope of each drum hit can be shaped, for example to lengthen the body or speed up the release.
- Direct parameter control. The parameters give direct control over event level and envelope, so settings can be dialed in without long trial and error.
Compatibility
MDrumLeveler comes as VST3, VST2, AU and AAX for Windows 8 and macOS 10.14 or later in 64-bit builds, with native support for Apple Silicon processors listed.
